Quick update: Today marks the second week of revenue service training. My DL170 certificate is on its way, once received I can go to a DMV office to get my VTT on the spot and approval for CDL (which comes in the mail)

Today while practicing a route, I had to make a buttonhook turn into a tight intersection. Thankfully the city designed a “keep clear” box for us to successfully facilitate that turn.

But today a cybertruck was blocking us, he went completely across the limit line and into the box, clearly all that money and he can’t read or doesn’t care.

But that’s okay, because my instructor told us to “teach him a lesson” and do the buttonhook anyways.

Absolutely satisfying making a cybertruck back down and reverse at the absolute size of your massive bus.

    Glossary:

    • “revenue service” - i infer this maybe refers to an advanced phase of a bus driver training program where paying passengers are on the bus?
    • “DMV” - Department of motor vehicles, the government agency responsible for issuing driving licenses in many US states
    • “DL170” - this maybe? a form certifying completion of an “Employer Testing Program”, where an employer operates their own driving tests which the state’s DMV recognizes?
    • “VTT” - “Verification of Transit Training” i guess?
    • “CDL” - Commercial driver’s license
